Macaulay Mountain Bike Trails, Picton Ontario

This video shows some of the trail system located at Macaulay Mountain in Picton Ontario. The parking lot and entrance to the trail is located here (http://tinyurl.com/32l426s ). The mountain itself is more of a large hill than a mountain. You can ride most trails up or do a five minute walk up a straight and very steep path to the top and work your way down through the trails. It’s mostly single track, dirt, no real hard climbs, drops or rock faces of any kind. Many of the trails aren’t labeled so it’s easy to get onto another trail you didn’t want to be on. Armor is not needed other than to help against cuts from overgrown trees. The “Groovy Tuesday” trail is pretty fun both ways and very twisty, as is the “bunny” trail. The “Strawberry Fields” at the summit is okay, but a little too twisty to get any kind of momentum or flow going like the others. “The Edge” is probably one of the best trails to go down. Overall, an easy and small trail system with some nice flowing single track. Not really worth a road trip on it’s own, but the Sandbanks Provincial park is near by.

The camera used is a Tachyon XC Micro.

Refresh Ripon with a Mountain Bike Trail

Ripon College and the Red Hawks collegiate cycling team are participating in the Pepsi Refresh Project to secure a $25,000 grant. The funds will be used to hire the International Mountain Bicycling Association Trail Solutions team to help design and build a single track mountain bike trail in Ripon, Wisconsin.

With this mountain bike trail, Ripon College students and Ripon community members have the opportunity to lead healthier and more active lifestyles by exercising in a fun and accessible outdoor location. Since it will be on a Prairie Conservancy and we want to preserve the ecosystem, we’re relying on the expertise of Trail Solutions to build a trail that is low impact and environmentally sustainable.

Ripon College established a program that provides a bike to incoming first-years who pledge not to bring a vehicle to campus. Building a bike trail will provide a recreational location for these students.

Wisconsin looks to form a high school mountain bike league, and, with Ripon’s history of competitive bikers, this bike trail will serve as training ground for a future Ripon High School mountain bike team.

The bike trail will be a wonderful outdoor location for students and community members to lead active and healthy lifestyles in an enjoyable way.

Mountain bike Beaver Lake

www.justsouthofnorth.com has more of our adventures.

Today the Northern Rangers headed out to Beaver Lake. I recently got a new mountain bike. It’s a 2009 Specialized Rockhopper. So I was stoked to try it out. Jeff brought his mountain bike, a 2004 Specialized Hardrock. Needless to say, we were representing the Specialized brand today.

We were looking for a good place to try out my new ride and came across a ranking from King 5 and Evening Magazine that ranked the best mountain bike trails in the Seattle area. They ranked Beaver Lake number 3 for for 2009. We decided that we would head out there and give it a try as it’s not too far from our office.

It wasn’t a very hard trail minus one log bridge that had a big lip to get up onto. You had to ride at it and pull up your front tire to hop the lip. Needless to say, it was entertaining. Here, watch for yourself.
